Farafena has a powerful and engaging brand story, and a genuine love for producing high quality and nutritious foods. They wanted to redesign their website to help spread awareness about their superfoods, educate their audience on the uses and benefits, and highlight the farmers and communities impacted by their partnerships.
Farafena’s audience cares about wellness and social responsibility, so their storytelling drove the new site structure. The narrative guides the user experience in a natural flow through key content — products, recipes, where to buy, and stories.
Farafena has a bold palette that was fun to work with. The vivid colour accents stand out against the grey and black backgrounds, drawing the eye to key content. With the design refresh we included all new photography, which enhances the site's overall authentic feel. Products and recipes entice clicks and lateral navigation through showcasing their strong, professional imagery.
The new Farafena web design is a highly engaging user experience. The new Store Locator page with geolocation search and filtering makes it quick and easy for customers to find Farafena products at nearby stores. Overall site engagement is strengthened through the authentic visual appeal of the big, bold images. The addition of Instagram integration creates a further emotional connection, and elevates the brand messages of health and social responsibility.
We've had the pleasure of working with Forge & Smith in the past and they are a great group. Excellent design, prompt/friendly communication and very professional. I would recommend Forge & Smith to anyone looking to build a site or help consulting on online strategy.
